Lifting one finger is all you need, try it like this
E||--3--------3--------||
B||--3--------3--------||
G||--4--------4--------||
D||--5--------3--------||
A||--5--------5--------||
E||--3--------3--------||

Try this GN article on reading tabs https://www.guitarnoise.com/faq.php?id=136

The tab above is just 2 barre chords barred at the 3rd fret. The letters are the strings (bottom E on tab is the top fat low E on your guitar) and the numbers are the fret to fret the string at.

Just understand that doing a barre chord isn't easy for beginners. If you struggle, keep pluggin away.

Note you can do a G and G7 also as open chord.

G [3 2 0 0 0 3]
G7 [3 2 0 0 0 1]

It looks as if that was the original fingering. I was suggesting an alternative.
